As a client, I am not sure how to respond. I do not negotiate price with an escort. If an escorts states $400. I just say thank you for getting back to me just as a courtesy. If they come back with a lower price, I just pass. On the other hand, there are a few hot escorts I see who charge less. Trust me, they could get more. @latbear4blk has taught me there are great rates to be found. When they are great, I book for multiple hours each time because it is a bargain price when they could easily be charging more. We all want the best experience possible for the best rate. I think a compromise is to offer multihour rates of some sort. Assuming $250 was an inital hour rate, charge $250 for one hour and $400 for two hours $500 for three. If a clients does not want to pay those decreasing prices, you probably do not want to deal with them any ways.
